Abstract

A significant barrier to the use of Web services is the problem of testing them. One of the solutions to deal with the problem lies in the ability to simulate the usage of the services. Requests must be generated and responses must be validated automatically in a fast and reliable manner. To accomplish this goal, we have developed a tool called WSDLTest. WSDLTest is part of a larger complex tool set - DataTest - for generating and validating system test data. The architecture and functionality of this tool, as well as the experience gained from using it, are presented
